No one can compete with the entire Federation, not even the legendary Seven Great Families, or even a powerful political figure. Once the will of the Federation is manifested through specific institutions, powerful efficiency and terrifying power will come to the world.
The investigation by the Ministry of Justice did not cooperate with the Charter Bureau, but tens of thousands of agents from the FBI and the Ministry of Justice were scattered like ants, following the path that the Medellin Congressman once walked. Facing the doubts in the evidence, he began to investigate with extreme detail in the places he had been to.
The investigation went smoothly, and it didn't take long. The suspicious points found and the evidence sent by the mysterious person were enough to support many conclusions. When the 70-centimeter-thick case file was sent to the Hall of Parliament Hill, even the most stubborn MP, the most staunch supporter of that side, had to agree to the speaker's request for an emergency meeting.
At this emergency meeting of the Federal Council of Management, the Minister of Justice and the independent inspector from the First Military Academy made detailed elaborations and indicated the seriousness of the situation. After an extremely heated debate and even cursing, the parliament finally voted by a narrow margin to temporarily deprive the Medellin MPs of their judicial immunity.
Because the Medellin MP is still a candidate for the presidential election, it still needs the signature of the highest judge of the federal court. By the time all these procedures were done, it was already two o'clock in the evening.
Parliament Hill in the middle of the night is not as solemn and peaceful as it used to be, full of shouting crowds. Under the indifferent gaze of the huge statue in Charter Square in the distance, the supporters of the Medellin Congressman, holding the portrait of George Carlin and the Medellin Congressman, were desperately roaring, abusive, The riot police who stopped in front of him gestured with his middle finger.
The bottom of the Parliament Hill is divided into three areas according to the long stone steps. On the other side are some supporters of the Pabble Congressman. They believe that Medellin is a group of terrorists. They hold the innocent dead in the terrorist attack in the four states around the mountain. , and shouted to the other side without showing weakness, and at the same time gave warm applause to the inspectors of the Ministry of Justice who were walking quietly along the stone steps.
It's just that the number of these people is much smaller, but the huge photos they hold in their hands are exuding a blunt and icy smell, especially one of them, a little girl watching a concert, under the icy stones With her eyes tightly closed, the dust covered her face and the blood on her face...
Xiao Wenjing and Xu Songzi took more than a dozen officials of the Ministry of Justice and walked to the Parliament Hill. They have come to the highest federal legislative body many times these days. The initial excitement has turned into calm and after obtaining clues It's just obvious that many more people came to demonstrate today than usual, and the flashing lights on both sides were particularly dazzling, probably because the news was leaked.
On the street by the lawn, a black car parked quietly. Xu Le lit a cigarette and took a breath. Through the on-board monitoring system, he watched the lively scene on Parliament Hill in the distance, and finally his eyes fell on the photo of the little girl. His fingers with the cigarette trembled, and he immediately pointed the picture on the light screen at the Parliament. mountain gate.
Whether it is the Ministry of Defense or the Nutshell Mobile, it seems to be a little embarrassing about how to deal with him, a meritorious minister, so he did not go to work at Whitewater Company these days, but came to Parliament Hill every day, and was able to immediately Seeing Medellin brought to justice is what he hopes most.
When he found out that Xiao Wenjing and Xu Songzi were among the members of the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice, he couldn't help being a little surprised, and then he felt a little bit of admiration in his heart.
It didn't take long for Justice Department officials to emerge from Parliament Hill. In the middle of the crowd, the Medellin Congressman in a gray trench coat looked as usual, not looking very decadent.
The flash light suddenly illuminated half of the night sky, and the statues on the columns of the Parliament Hill Building looked lifelike and particularly hideous under the illumination of these artificial lights.
The Medellin congressman was escorted down the stone steps, and several specially-made official vehicles were waiting to take him to the Ministry of Justice for investigation.
The people under the stone steps saw this scene, and their emotions were suddenly brought to a peak. Countless supporters were calling the old man's name, crying and scolding the government's shamelessness, while the smaller team over there , is angrily shouting terms like murderer, baby killer, hypocrite.
No expression leaked from the Medellin Congressman's face. His footsteps were still steady, and his face was still calm and confident in his old face. He waved to the people who supported him and expressed his gratitude.
"Medellin Congressman, is there anything you want to publish?" The reporters who were stopped outside the security line shouted loudly while pressing the shutter desperately.
The Medellin Congressman stopped, smiled, and raised his hands. The Justice Department wasn't stupid enough to handcuff him, not even a plastic cord on his hands outside the sleeves of his trench coat.
"I've been in handcuffs many times in my life, but every time I've proven me right and come back safely." It became a little quiet on the Parliament Hill, and the Medellin MP raised his hands and said, "However, today has proved it. , this Commonwealth is still full of invisible handcuffs."
"I don't want the federation to fall into some kind of division because of this matter." Medellin Congressman shouted to reporters and to the people who supported him: "Go back, at least history will make its correct judgment. ."
Only history is qualified to make judgments, but what about federal laws? These few words of the Medellin Congressman vaguely revealed a certain emotion in his heart. Those supporters who were immediately infected looked sad and felt sad, and even those reporters forgot for a while that they should re-open. Ask something.
At this moment, the chief political reporter of the Capital Daily, Wood, suddenly shouted at Medellin on the stone steps: "The moral court in your heart has already sentenced you to death!"
The Medellin Congressman looked at the reporter who knocked him down, smiled and said nothing. Inspector Xiao Wenjing, who was holding his arm beside him, froze slightly, remembering that what reporter Wood said was the focus of the last of the seventeen editorials published by the Medellin Congressman in the daily.
Angry people began to throw paper balls at Wood and spit. The scene was chaotic. Several specially-made official vehicles, under the protection of riot police, slowly drove away from Parliament Hill.
Xu Le turned off the remote monitoring light screen and took his last puff of cigarettes in silence. Thinking of the crowd and the angry young people, even Zou Yingxing didn't believe that Medellin would do such a shameless act at the beginning. When things came, he suddenly understood why he was in the Yinhe Cemetery and was unwilling to forgive Lin Yuanhu. It was because he knew very well that people like Medellin and Lin Yuanhu were the best and most convincing. Disgusting actor.
Professor Shen once said that there is no reason in the universe. However, the major events that have occurred in the Federation in the past six months seem to show that this kind of thing still exists, at least in the hearts of some people. Because of this knowledge, because of the news that Uncle Feng Yu is still alive, Xu Le, who seems to have been forgotten by many people, is very happy to be a spectator watching the drama, watching the murderer and arsonist being brought to court, and the bridge and road pavers in the ground. .
However, the development of the situation was beyond his expectations.
On the day the Medellin MP was invited by the Ministry of Justice to investigate, demonstrations broke out in countless cities in the capital’s star circle. Ordinary citizens of the Commonwealth who could never fully understand the political shady, according to their usual thinking, regard the case of the Medellin Congressman being charged as one of the countless shady things in the federation. The people's ideas are very simple and simple. Medellin from the four states around the mountains in S2 is an outsider and a weak person in the federal political system. He has no motivation to do those evil deeds, so in the hearts of the people, Medellin Congressman Lim must have been a victim, and the Justice Department's accusations were nothing more than a shameless conspiracy by some bigwigs.
The Medellin Congressman has worked tirelessly over the years to preach his non-violent ideas, creating a perfect political image for him. Coupled with the shouting and running of those fanatical and loyal George Carlinists, countless federal people began to They took to the streets to show solidarity with the lawmakers who had been deprived of their judicial immunity. Especially in Linhai Prefecture University Town, most of the students joined the parade, resulting in a large-scale suspension of classes.
The next night, Governor Ross, who was the running mate of the Medellin Congressman, held a press conference. At the press conference, he expressed his absolute trust and strong support for the ethics of the Medellin Congressman, and angrily accused the federal government. , played a very disgraceful role in this matter, and stated that it would not rule out the disclosure of some ugly truths at the appropriate moment, demanding that the Ministry of Justice immediately release the Medellin Congressman, and make a sincere apology, and announced that the campaign office has Submitted a letter to the court, accusing the Capital District Daily and a private TV station of the crime of disseminating false information to endanger public safety, libel, and the crime of accepting bribes by journalists…
As an old-fashioned politician who has controlled the largest city port in the Federation for many years, Jingzhou Governor Ross's counterattack is definitely not just holding a press conference. Just after the press conference, several of the most famous business people in the federation also began to stand up, expressing their distrust of the Ministry of Justice and their support for Medellin MPs, the Federal Financial Association, the Mining Association and a large number of influences. Organizations with far-reaching power have also expressed their attitudes.
Over the next ten hours, many more powerful figures came out in support of the Medellin MP. Seventeen professors from Capital University signed the open letter, the Federal Academic Council also expressed concern, and more media also began to stand on the side of the marchers and wave their flags, believing that this blatant political persecution occurred in the thirty-seventh constitutional calendar. Today, it is unimaginable and unbearable.
The federal society began to have the precursors of conflict.
